Michigan is pursuing options not only to close out the Class of 2013, but also current juniors. U-M already has commitments from St. Clairsville (Ohio) linebacker Michael Ferns and unranked offensive lineman Denzel Ward from Chicago Hales Franciscan.

The Wolverines' coaching staff is extending new offers to 2014 prospects, including Oakley (Calif.) Freedom running back Joe Mixon. The 5-11, 180-pound four-star was excited to hear good news from U-M tight ends coach Dan Ferrigno.
